Re:

That's the cool thing about the Internet (as it is now), it lets anyone much more easily contribute.

Outside the Internet the laws are intentionally set up so that you have to go through a govt imposed monopolistic gatekeeper to contribute and such gatekeepers ensure that they benefit the most from any contribution that anyone makes or else such contributions aren't broadcasted.

Of course politicians are aggressively seeking to pass laws that effectively turn the Internet into what they have wrongfully turned everything outside the Internet into.

Coming from one lacking in any sort of talent, creativity, basic intelligence, common courtesy, or even the common sense to come out of a torrential downpour, I feel it safe to say that your comment is useless.

Great work, Nina

Yet more evidence for Mike's arguments regarding the value of the conversation and how innovation and creativity are enhanced by it, not destroyed. Kudos to Rich for feeling flatterred rather claiming ownership.

Re: Great work, Nina

That's the thing that copyright maximalist doesn't understand. This didn't happen in a vacuum. It was serendipity. I made the mistake, Pitabred noticed it, and Nina made a comic out of it. How could anyone claim ownership? What other pleasing turn of events would happen if people didn't have to be afraid of being sued?
